In todays episode, I am talking about the Ancient Art of Reiki and my own personal expeirence with it to help me heal some of my past trauma. It is a great healing modality to add to your tool box of healing trauma. It has been an important part of my spiritual journey as well as having helped me connect not only to my divine feminine energy but to get more connected to my intuition.

Also I have announced the new book for the month, for our book club, and it is Atomic Habits by James Clear. If you would like to join the bookclub then please click on the link below, it will take you to the Facebook group called 'The Phoenix Diaries', I would love to see you over there.

In today's episode I will be chatting about a few methods that I have been trying out to not only identify my self limiting beliefs but also what I have tried to flip them into positive ones. These beliefs are usually a product of the trauma and can keep us stuck in a loop of negative patterns. Have a listen and give it a try! Let me know you thoughts or if you have discovered any amazing ways that we can try.

In today's episode I will be doing a brief intro to what the show is about, who am I and what we will be doing on this journey. I will be discussing what Trauma is, how it manifests and why we need to heal it. I will also be using my astrology experience and my birth chart as a guiding tool on my journey BUT this is not an astrology podcast. If however you would like to use astrology on your own journey then please reach out to me on my social media or my website and I would be honoured to work with you!
